Critics Review
“Dworkin writes with power, anger, daring–and from a great care and love of womankind.” –ALICE WALKER, author of The Color Purple
“Andrea Dworkin’s Pornography is a resolutely, beautifully sustained argument … There is wit, imagination, and a brilliant capacity to reason in this book.” –KATE MILLETT, author of Sexual Politics
“This strongly argued feminist case against pornography stirred tremendous controversy when first published in 1979, and has lost none of its bite during its several years out of print … Dworkin’s style is intense, vivid and eloquent, infused with a sense of urgency.” –Publishers Weekly
